Have you ever wondered about how the horn feels as it vibrates when being played? Or what is this thing called “embouchure” or use of the mouth and lips? Or why does a player put a hand inside the bell of the horn? What does a horn player do to effortlessly produce sounds that stir the soul?
Todd Williams, H+H principal horn, explains all as Guy Fishman’s special guest in this week’s Tuning In podcast. Learn about the evolution of the horn, including its origins in hunting traditions, the similarities between singing and horn playing, and the differences between a period natural horn and a modern horn.
